Cornell Campus Center
 The
Cornell Campus Center
is the hub of student activities on the
Rollins College
campus.
It includes a variety of dining facilities,
conference rooms and offices. Lounges serve as informal
gathering places to study, socialize, read or watch one
of
two large-screen TVs.
The $7.8-million center, with its
commanding views of the campus and Lake Virginia, was
dedicated on February 18, 1999, following a year and a
half of construction. The center received its initial
boost with a $3-million gift from Rollins alumni and
benefactors George
D. and Harriet W. Cornell, for whom it is named. The
project also was supported by a $2 million gift from
Rollins alumnus and trustee Thomas
P. Johnson, as well
as gifts from other generous alumni, parents and
corporations.
 The multi-level facility was designed by Shepley
Bulfinch Richardson and Abbott Architects of Boston,
constructed by Walker & Company, a Winter Park-based
contractor, and landscaped by Carol R. Johnson
Associates, Cambridge. Mass. The center features
Rollins' signature Spanish-Mediterranean architecture,
with its tile roof and outdoor plazas, patios and
terraces.
